Abstract

A display device includes a first substrate, a wavelength conversion layer disposed on the first substrate, an inorganic film disposed on the wavelength conversion layer, a flattening film disposed on the inorganic film, and a first polarizing layer disposed on the flattening film, where a difference between a coefficient of thermal expansion of the flattening film and a coefficient of thermal expansion of the inorganic film is about 50 ppm/K or less.

Claims (35)

1. A display device comprising:

a first substrate;

a wavelength conversion layer disposed on the first substrate;

an inorganic film disposed on the wavelength conversion layer;

a flattening film disposed on the inorganic film; and

a first polarizing layer disposed on the flattening film,

wherein a difference between a coefficient of thermal expansion of the flattening film and a coefficient of thermal expansion of the inorganic film is about 50 ppm/K or less.

2. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the wavelength conversion layer comprises quantum dots.

3. The display device of claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the wavelength conversion layer is in a range of about 5 μm to about 7 μm.

4. The display device of claim 3 , wherein a thickness of the flattening film is in a range of about 6 μm to about 10 μm.

5. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the flattening film comprises polyimide.

6. The display device of claim 5 , wherein the coefficient of thermal expansion of the flattening film is in a range of about 5 ppm/K to about 35 ppm/K.

7. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the difference between the coefficient of thermal expansion of the flattening film and the coefficient of thermal expansion of the inorganic film is in a range of about 1.7 ppm/K to about 32.9 ppm/K.

8. The display device of claim 7 , wherein the flattening film further comprises diamine.

9. The display device of claim 8 , wherein the diamine is in an amount of 20 to 80 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the polyimide.

10. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the inorganic film reflects green light and red light, and transmits blue light.

11. The display device of claim 1 , wherein the first polarizing layer comprises a wire grid polarizer.

12. The display device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a backlight unit which emits blue light and provides the blue light to the wavelength conversion layer.

13. The display device of claim 12 , further comprising:

a light transmitting layer disposed to be adjacent to the wavelength conversion layer.

14. The display device of claim 1 , wherein

the wavelength conversion layer is provided in plural, and

the wavelength conversion layers have different heights from each other.

15. A method of manufacturing a display device, the method comprising:

preparing a first substrate on which a wavelength conversion layer is provided;

providing an inorganic film on the first substrate to cover the wavelength conversion layer;

providing a flattening film on the inorganic film; and

providing a first polarizing layer on the flattening film.

wherein a difference between a coefficient of thermal expansion of the flattening film and a coefficient of thermal expansion of the inorganic film is about 50 ppm/K or less.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the wavelength conversion layer comprises quantum dots.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein a thickness of the wavelength conversion layer is in a range of about 5 μm to about 7 μm.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein a thickness of the flattening film is in a range of about 6 μm to about 10 μm.

19. The method of claim 15 , wherein the flattening film comprises polyimide.

20. The method of claim 15 , wherein the difference between the coefficient of thermal expansion of the flattening film and the coefficient of thermal expansion of the inorganic film is in a range of about 1.7 ppm/K to about 32.9 ppm/K.
